Sudden Status

A familiar sight after many years once again: moving black dots covering a neglected coke can as soon as I’m done, the white sink covered in moving black dots in the morning drawn by the sweet, peppermint mouthwash from last night, dead, winged insect on the white floor suddenly moving away held up by moving black dots. Oh black ants, you bring back childhood memories.

  1. My ants memory: a parade of tiny ants in the shower when we lived in the Philippines. If I splashed them, they released a subtle smell and the other marching ants changed the route of their march just enough to avoid the spot of my attack.
